CS/Q: What the heck does everyone do during the TWW?? I am already going insane and I'm only 1DPO  😂

@fantasyflyte sounded like you had fun at the concert! Hope your cold goes away soon!

@jellie603 😂 the TWW is tough. I try to plan fun things to do while I wait, and distract myself with TV or books.

Typical LP length: 13-14

Timing: -3, -1, 0, +1

Typical LP length: 12-13 days

Testing: this weekend

R/R: going over to my parent's tonight for a roast beef dinner I've been saving a hilarious tidbit I learned about during DH's birthday dinner to tell my mom. That tornado warning we had last week? My MIL told us that future BIL was 100% serious about keeping a chainsaw with them in their basement so that if the house was flattened, he would be able to chainsaw his way out from the rubble. What??? 

CS/Q: 

pajamstagrams

@inthewoods23 ok the first time I read your post I saw "roast dinner" and thought you were gonna roast your future BIL for his chainsaw aspirations 😂😂

@fantasyflyte glad you had a great time at the concert!

@jellie603 I try to stay as distracted as I can so I don’t think about it too much. 

@pajamstagrams I’m excited for you to be off the bench next week!

@inthewoods23 have a great time at dinner!

Month/Cycle: 1/1

CD/DPO: 26/13

Timing: -2, -1, 0

Typical LP length: 14 days 

Testing: Saturday if no AF

R/R: I went out and bought a FRER today so I probably jinxed myself. I’m really hoping that if AF does come that she shows up Saturday and not tomorrow when I’m working a 12 hour shift.

CS/Q: nada

inthewoods23

@pajamstagrams I mean he does say and do some questionable things so it wouldn't be difficult to roast him 😂

pinkkillersheep

@fantasyflyte Glad you had fun last night? Concerts are one of the things I’ve missed most in COVID times. I’m supposed to go to a festival next month but we’ll see if that happens…
@jellie603 If you figure how to not lose your mind let me know lol
@pajamstagrams Work has been insane for me too. I swear everything in the world has been going crazy lately.
@inthewoods23 I don’t eat meat often but man does roast beef sound good. Hope you have a nice dinner
@shortstack930 I’ve been debating getting some to have on hand but am equally afraid of jinxing things…

Month/Cycle: 4/3

CD/DPO: 31/1

Timing: O-1

Typical LP length: unknown

Testing: not currently planning on it

R/R: I leave for vacation next week! ::star eyes:: I can’t wait to take a break from everything.

CS/Q: My bbt finally had a noticeable shift so I’m going to go ahead and assume O was yesterday.

*lurking*

@shortstack930 and @pinkkillersheep I do believe the correct strategy is to buy your pregnancy tests at the same time as you buy your menstrual supplies. Lore has it that this balances out the jinxing.

eta: also it confuses the checkout person, which is always good.

eta2: no one should probably ever take pregnancy jinxing advice from me, given my TTC history!

shortstack930

@optimistgardener funny you should say that because I was also buying pantyliners at the time 😂😂

@Shortstack06 did you end up testing today? I am one day behind you in LP and freaking out waiting these last two days.

R/R: one year anniversary trip Labor Day weekend

CS/Q: (idk what this is)

shortstack930

@cnicholeb I did, BFN 😒. Enjoy your trip! CS/Q is if you have any questions related to your chart/cycle. 

cnicholeb

@Shortstack06 sorry for your BFN, it ain’t over until af comes! I also got a BFN today, and my temp dropped a lot. I am really struggling mentally today. Having to fight all the negative thoughts. 

cnicholeb

Af just showed up for me. Sad day
